Genie Quest
A lamp-and-palace story told through matching boards, with missions as you go.
Genie Quest hangs its boards on a familiar story: a palace, a sultan, and a thoroughly arrogant vizier to be dealt with. Progress through the matching levels moves the tale along, and new missions arrive as the palace opens up.
Story-led match 3 lives or dies on whether the levels change as the plot does, and this one does keep introducing new asks rather than repeating a single goal with bigger numbers. The result is a run you play for the next thing rather than for a score column.
It suits a session where you want somewhere to be going. The board itself is a standard swap, so nothing needs learning before you start — the discovery the game promises is in the missions, not in the mechanics.

Tips & Tricks
On a story board, the level goal is the plot. When a new mission introduces something you have not seen, spend the first thirty seconds watching what it does rather than clearing quickly — the games that punish you here are the ones you rushed into.
